NAHB-Produced Programs on DIY, Fine Living and HGTV

The NAHB Production Group produces weekly television shows on DIY, Fine Living and HGTV for consumers. The following is the latest lineup:

"Rock Solid" on DIY

Episode: "Boundary Wall"

• April 28, 9:30 p.m. EDT
• April 29, 1:30 a.m. EDT

 

An old-fashioned, double-faced boundary wall using different shapes and sizes of local stone is the one wall almost everyone wants, but it's also the most difficult to build — unless you know the secret of hosts Dean Marsico and Derek Stearns. They build a two-foot high local stone wall and top it off with a natural stone cap. The result is a stunning, cost-effective wall that will stand head and shoulders above the competition, even though it's only two feet high.

"I Want That" on Fine Living

Episode: "Portable GPS Navigation, Copper Kitchens, Stylish Pet Carriers"

• April 30, 2:00 p.m. EDT

 

Never get lost again with a portable multimedia device that also includes a GPS navigation system. Enhance your kitchen with a copper sink and countertop. Make refrigerator cleaning easier with a liner infused with baking soda. Transport your pet in style with a hip, designer alternative to the traditional carrier.
